Haaland needs De Bruyne and De Bruyne needs Haaland, says Guardiola
Manchester City coach surrendered to the Norwegian, who scored five goals, and the Belgian, who assisted four, against Luton
Manchester City beat Luton 6-2 in the FA Cup , largely thanks to five goals scored by Haaland , four of which were served by Kevin De Bruyne . At the end of the match, Pep Guardiola, coach of the skyblues, showed himself surrendered to the performances of the two stars, who, he says, live in symbiosis , but without forgetting the performance of all the players.
“What can I say? Very very good. Erling [Haaland] is red hot and Kevin [De Bruyne]… the connection was perfect. It was a very good game and we are in the quarter finals. Kevin needs players like Erling and Erling needs players like Kevin. We wouldn’t be here without the other players. There is a lot of credit from everyone”, said the Spaniard, who refuses to take these payments for granted.
“We won the last two games 1-0 and against Chelsea we played well in the second half, but we couldn’t win. One game at a time”, said Pep, who once again shows his desire to reach the final: “The FA Cup is a very good competition. One game left before we go to Wembley again.”
